Re: Kill la Kill

Coming from Imaishi and Nakashima, one would expect one hell of a final episode for their series. Well, damn straight it was. The episode wanted to be long they also cut again the opening, and hey, i'm fine with that.

Last chapter gave me everything i wanted. The Elite four going all out on the satelite thing Ragyo had prepared in order to awaken the life fibers, some Mako-drama, an almost Gamagoori passing out then getting back from Hell giving his fregging all (I mean, what the hell, Gamagoori? How can you manifest for own face in your chest? Lmfao, that was so fregging epic). That, acompanied with "Ambiguous" sounding in the background, which a long with "Sanbika" and "Blumenkranz", are my fav themes.
I also liked the Spiderman reference with Inumuta, even tho i'm not that fan of his new goku design. That was awesome again!

Also, damn, Imaishi. You surely like to give your series and end in the outter space. Happened with Diebuster, then Tengen Toppa, now Kill La Kill. The hell, dude?! xD it was funny to see Ragyo and Ryuuko turning into rockets then fighting at the Earth's orbit like it was nothing. I gotta point out that I loved the fact they used "Sirius" when Ryuuko merged every goku uniform to achieve her Senketsu Kisaragi. Also, that new scissor blade's form. Gotta admit i expected Satsuki and Ryuuko to 2v1 Ragyo. Shame it didnt happen, it would of be really cool if they "JACKPOT'D" Ragyo with scissor blade's both halves. But oh well. The fight was not over the top, it was downright ridiculously epic, lolol.

And talking about Ragyo, i liked her as the series's antagonist as much as i liked Lordgenome. She was hatefull, a complete bitch outta her mind, yet fabulous and elegant. Even badass when it came to the point, which i liked. I also liked the fact she chose to remain strong with her beliefs on the Life Fibers and rejected the redemption of peacefully getting back to the Earth. Lets be honest, even if Ryuuko, Satsuki and the rest of the cast forgave her, none in the Earth would do it. So, life fibers could appear once again in the future, uh? That could be a reference for a second season, but i'm not sure if it'd fit alright given the fact how well wrapped up everything is right now.

As for Nui, i'm not sure if i liked her demise at all. Her merging with the Orginal Life Fiber was unexpected yet it made sense if we consider that she's somehow the original life fiber's... "embodiment". Then i'm guessing she's merged/assimilated by Ragyo's Shinra Koketsu and... Thats all. D: Dunno, i expected a different ending for her, but... Oh well.

Ryuuko & Senketsu's moment was heartbreaking and got me a tear out. I mean, yeah, sure, the purpose was to get rid of every life fiber so Senketsu being the only life fiber being alive would be a little weird... And i guess Trigger did a good choice when they decided his fate. In the end, he serverd the purpose for what he was created: To protect Ryuuko, and hell, surely he did it, until the very end. Its a shame, i had such huge sympathy for him. Oh well... ;A; You'll be always remembered, Senketsu-kun. Oh! Gotta add, was boss that Satsuki in the end also managed to communicate to him!

And the end was also hearthwarming. I gotta admit i've accepted Ryuuko and Satsuki's sisterly relationship, and their "Welcome back/i'm home, sis"... Loved it. <3

With the ending, now i see way clear that the very first ending Kill La Kill had makes way more sense now, lol. So, we have Ryuuko and Satsuki having a sis relationship and befriending Mako, having them devas stalking them. BUT WHAT THE HELL, TRIGGER. WHERES MY GAMAKO. WHY U NO DELIVER GAMAKO, DAMN IT. I was waiting for the very end to have these two officially coupled together and it seems like while it spiritualy happened, they never really got to be together feeling wise. Darng.

Oh well. ... I think that is all, lol. Its been a long trip (Almost 6 months, damn it xD), and what can i say. Thank you, TRIGGER, because Kill La Kill was completly worth the watch. I wouldnt exagerate if i said it is in fact, my fav 2013/2014 title and the anime i liked the most from what i've watched recently. As a final score, i'm giving it a +8.5/10. Yup, that +8.5 is indeed ambiguous (How paradogic, i'm listening to that song right now xD), but i believe it to be one hell of a high score. Why i'm not giving it a 10, is because... Well, first, the anime felt way too fast paced for my taste. Some episodes would've fit better in different episodes. Some stuff was explored and developed quite fast in single episodes, thing i didnt like at all. Being frank, its a shame KLK's not a 27 eps long like KLK was, but... Oh well.

I also missed a little bit of more clear and defined character development. I guess i also expected Mikisugi to be someone else and not just "ZE NUDISTO". But i'm also okay with that. Lastly, the animation. Dont get me wrong. I dont hate KLK's animation. In fact, i think the animation style Trigger decided to give it was quite original. Some people argues the series could of be better with a fluid animations. Other liked it as it is. I did like it this way, just expected some key episodes to be better animated. But then again, that didnt have any effect at all on hpw much i liked Kill La Kill, lol. I'm recommending it to everyone that likes shonen and is looking for something different. Because KLK offers that and more.

^ Personal note: Not a very well written review/wall of text, but i'm sorry. D: I've never been good at explaining myself, lol.

Oh, gotta point, i dont like Satsuki's new haircut, sorry. :c I liked her long hair a lot. She has some resemblance with Faye Valentine now, but.. Blah. D: Not my cup of tea.

Wow, you were able to put your thoughts into words; on the other hand I don't even know where to start from. XD
I'll just say this: I LOVED this show, I LOVED the characters in it and I LOVED the final episode because it had the right amount epicness in it.
And those DBZ references made my day.
I'll definitely miss this anime, but who knows, after the OAV that will come out, they might make a second season.

^ Indeed, i was gonna mention this reference, but i didnt want to point that reference, but yeah, more than a saiyan, she's more of a Nono. I agree on that point tho, the fight in the space was over the top and ridiculous, but it almost felt Ryuuko didnt land a single blow nor did anything impressive in the entire fight, other than ending up absorbing the life fibers.

Either way, i'll miss Ryuuko, Mako, Satsuki and the others. :c

Apparently TRIGGER's next work's based on a manga named Inō Battle wa ichijō kei no Naka de. Havent heard of it. Apparently is not that known around the internet. e_e Here's some info about it:

Re: Kill la Kill

I feel like everything important was already said, an awesome end for an awesome show And the best thing is that we will get a final episode in September

Quote:

"The battle between the sisters of destiny is over. But there are still more tales left to tell. That is, the respective tales of graduation from Honnouji Academy. Kill la Kill episode 25: "Good Bye, One More Time."

Re: Kill la Kill

Did the thing I hate most for ending action series. when things go to space then there are clearly significant problems in the base writing department. First it was fighting at school which was decent but then the brief intermission and then space was odd. It felt as if there needed to be a bit more time or an additional episode to carry us from point A to point E like that. Too fast and too rushed. . Pretty boring ending at the end of the day.

Largely Kill la Kill just failed to take off in any department that didnt involve clothes. Sure the nekkid was great for characters like Uzu and such but after a few episodes the anime needed to have a bit more and it just never provided anything to me. There was nothing done to connect me to the characters in the lead role and just really unappealing and uninteresting moments involving the plot and concept. 2 / 10 for Mataro and his wonderful performance all the time and for Uzu. Bonus points to ED 2, it was kind of memorable.

Re: Kill la Kill

Great series and just finished watching it. Very bizarre art style, animation was top notch and the characters were very interesting. It's a shame, it was ended with 24 episodes and Space Dandy is wrapped up too...?. WTH...?.

Re: Kill la Kill

Brought this back for a bit because the special/final episode is out and subbed.

For those who expected some fanservice beach episode or something, you're mistaken. The final episodes offers all the ridiculous action-packed and touching stuff we loved from the main series. It brings closure on a few aspects and goes out with a bang, couldn't have asked for more

I still remember people asking about what exactly happened to Houomaru, nice idea to give some insight about her in the last episode and to make her to last one who clings on to Ragyou's believes.

Highlights for me:

- Senketsu/Ryouko moment, daaawww And god dat Scissor, epic.
- Mako remains as hilarious as always.
- Mikisugi being shocked that the four Deva's don't want to use his DTR...
- Nonon being annoyed by her copy x'D
- Satsuki's speech about looking after everyone "who doesn't make sense" felt like a really nice closure on what was brought up during the last episode of the series. Houomaru got convinced too
